James Tavernier sends message to Cyriel Dessers after Rangers exit reveal

Following the announcement that the team is trying to cash in on the striker, Rangers captain James Tavernier praised colleague Cyriel Dessers on social media.

Rangers might be open to accepting a “major offer” for the 30-year-old during the January transfer window, according to a report published by Football Insider on January 18.

Dessers is reportedly seen by the team as a “sellable asset” as they look to raise much-needed money.

The Nigerian would not be content to play second fiddle to Hamza Igamane, as has been the case for most of this season, according to reliable sources who spoke to Football Insider.

Along with goals from Clinton Nsiala and Ross McCausland, Dessers scored a hat-trick in Rangers’ convincing 5-0 Scottish Cup victory over Fraserburgh on Sunday, January 19.
